E! News confirms the Oscar-nominated actress is in negotiations to play a pivotal role in Lionsgate's upcoming Hunger Games two-parter, which will see Suzanne Collins' third and final book, Mockingjay, split into two movies.

A source tells E! News that talks are ongoing for Moore to play President Alma Coin in the sequels, but "no deal has been struck yet."

Fans of the dystopian sci-fi trilogy will remember Coin as the grey-haired president of District 13 who leads the rebellion against the dictatorship of The Capitol, but whose lust for power and ruthlessness ends up coming into conflict with the story's heroine, Katniss Everdeen.
